Default We have RAIN!
Finally, a break from 100+ and horribly dry air/dirt/ground/water tanks/etc.

I think we're only down like 32 inches or so...

No rain at all here, but finally we broke the 100 degree day streak I think. It's only 90 outside. I think I need a sweater. Brr.

I think it was 26? days in a row over 100 here.

Edit: no, only 20 days in a row. 26 days in August over 100 so far.

It can pour solid from Monday to Friday for all I care, as long as Saturdays and Sundays are sunny & clear(ish).
